Our Guide To Chicago Hotels

Getting to Chicago

The Windy City has two major airports, so arriving in the land of baseball and deep-dish pizza is pretty easy. Whether you land at Midway International Airport or O’Hare International Airport, you’re just a short drive from the heart of the city; Midway is 10 minutes from downtown Chicago and O’Hare is just 17 miles away. Grab a taxi or rental car at the terminal and you’re off to unpack. With cheap hotels in Chicago in some of the hottest neighborhoods, you’ll be saving cash and exploring your favorite Chi-Town attractions like a pro within an hour of landing.

Public Transportation

The "L" Train connects you to the city using elevated tracks, hence its name. There are more than 140 rail stops throughout the city, and the Red and Blue lines run around the clock. The Chicago Transit Authority operates the second-largest public transit system in the U.S., and it also offers a robust bus schedule. You can also grab land and water taxis if you want a quick trip from the Magnificent Mile to one the top Chicago hotels.

Public Restrooms

When you’ve got to go, you’ve got to go—but there aren’t a ton of public restrooms in Chicago. While you’re in the Loop and along the waterfront, you’ll have more options than when you venture out to smaller neighborhoods. That being said, the city also prides itself on having some pretty unique bathrooms worth a visit. For instance, the women’s room at the Signature Lounge level of the John Hancock Center has floor-to-ceiling windows and views of the city. At Homeslice bar in Lincoln Park, the walls are covered in pennies.

Discount Cards

Chicago’s list of attractions runs as deep as the mozzarella on a homemade slice at Tano’s Pizzeria. You can save some dough by getting a Go Chicago Card or CityPass, which provide discounted entry fees at places such as Willis Tower and the Art Institute.

Climate Conditions

Illinois sees all four seasons, so your experience will depend on when you visit. In the summertime, the average temperature in Chicago is about 80 degrees and Lake Michigan will tempt you to take an afternoon cruise. By the time winter rolls around, the temperature drops to an average of 32 in January and you can expect to see snow—so bundle up.

3 Things to Do in Chicago

1. Visit Navy Pier (1.2 miles from the Swissotel Chicago)

Jutting out into Lake Michigan, the Navy Pier is one of the most popular attractions in the city. It’s filled with restaurants, bars, a Ferris wheel, and a beer garden. Bring your kids or have some adult time; the pier is perfect for any type of vacation.

2. Explore Millennium Park (0.5 miles from the Congress Plaza Hotel)

A trip to Chicago without a stop in Millennium Park is like a trip to San Diego without going to the beach. You’ll find the Windy City’s famous metallic bean here, formally called Cloud Gate, as well as the 5-acre Lurie Garden and Jay Pritzker Pavilion. Grab a hot dog from a nearby cart and spend an afternoon exploring the legendary park before you hit up nearby shopping or theater venues.

Once named the Sears Tower (and still called that by lots of locals), this skyscraper is perhaps the most iconic part of the Chicago skyline and the tallest building in North America. Head to the observation deck, and you can walk out onto the glass-bottom ledge if you dare.

Book your hotel on Travelocity today, and you’ll be dreaming of piping hot marinara sauce tonight. Between the bounty of art and theater, your vacation in Chicago will keep you entertained and then some. Whether you spend the rest of your time cheering on the home team at Wrigley Field or eating your way through the Loop is up to you.

The wow factor that I had was for the staff. Starting from check-in they seemed genuinely interested in helping you. I knew that I booked the smaller room but failed to realize how tight it would be. I won’t do that again. My problem was with the bed linins. Pulling back the comforter we notice something on the sheet then noticed something under it. The mattress pad had a 3x3 blood stain. This is something that housekeeping decided was OK. Called the desk they offer to change our room but we were unpacked and dressed for bed. They sent housekeeping to change the linins on the bed which was done promptly. The manager came to the room and took a picture of the stain and asked what he could do for us. I’m sorry but it makes you think what else is “good enough”. The rate was good and the staff was friendly so I would return. I just hope they figure out how to avoid the good enough attitudes.

Elevator was out on one day location was out of the city again staff was really polite rooms were relatively clean, the foyer entrance way had a strange chemical odor to it every time we entered and there's definitely no extras
